OSRS Revenants Craw’s Bow Method: Fast GP Making Guide 2025
What’s good, Scapers? Wanna make bank in Old School RuneScape without spending hours grinding boring stuff? The Craw’s Bow Method for hunting Revenants in the Wilderness is where it’s at in 2025. I’ve been running these caves for ages, dodging PKers and stacking millions. Trust me, it’s a wild ride, but the loot is worth it. This guide’s got all my tips and tricks for raking in GP with Craw’s Bow, from gear to surviving those sneaky PKers. Why’s this method so hot? It’s fast, it’s loaded with profit, and it keeps you on edge. Let’s jump in!
What Makes Craw’s Bow So Special?
Why pick Craw’s Bow for Revenants? It’s a beast in the Wilderness. When you charge it with Revenant Ether, it gets a 50% Ranged accuracy and damage boost against NPCs out there. Plus, it spits out its own ammo, so no need to haul arrows. Sounds dope, right? Well, there’s a catch: the Wilderness is a PKer’s playground, so you gotta stay sharp to keep your loot safe.
Here’s why this method slaps:
- Big Money: You can pull 4-5M GP an hour with the right setup.
- Quick Kills: Craw’s Bow tears through Revenants like they’re paper.
- Rare Loot: Chance for epic drops like Wilderness weapons or ancient artifacts.
- Bonus XP: Up to 95K Ranged XP per hour while you’re at it.
Is it dangerous? Hell yeah. The Revenant Caves are crawling with PKers, so you need to balance making GP with not getting smoked. Ready to learn how to do it? Let’s roll.
The Deal with Revenants and Their Caves
Revenants are creepy ghost versions of God Wars monsters, chilling in the Revenant Caves (levels 17-40 Wilderness). You’ve got everything from weak-ass Imps (combat level 7) to tanky Dragons (combat level 135). They all share a drop table with juicy stuff like Craw’s Bow, Viggora’s Chainmace, Thammaron’s Sceptre, and ancient artifacts that sell for millions. The caves run on singles-plus combat, so a PKer can jump you even if you’re fighting a Rev. Scary stuff, huh? Nah, you’ll be fine with the right prep.
There are three main ways into the caves:
- Level 17: Near the Graveyard of Shadows. Safer, but farther from the good Revs.
- Level 27: By the Wilderness Obelisk. Solid middle option.
- Level 40: Up north near the Lava Maze. Close to high-level Revs, but PKers love it.
Which one’s best? If you’re new or got low stats, stick with level 17 or 27 for easier getaways. Got 89 Agility? Hit the level 40 entrance for that sweet shortcut to the big boys.
Gear: Stack Damage, Keep Risk Low
Your gear setup is make-or-break for Revenant farming. You want max damage but low risk, ‘cause PKers will try to ruin your day. Here’s my go-to setup for mid-to-high-level players:
| Slot | Item | Why It Works |
|---|---|---|
| Weapon | Craw’s Bow (charged) | 50% Ranged boost in Wilderness, shoots its own ammo. No-brainer. |
| Ammo | Revenant Ether (1000 + 2000) | 1000 to activate, 2000 for ~1 hour of shooting. Don’t skimp on this. |
| Neck | Amulet of Avarice | 20% damage/accuracy boost, notes drops, but skulls you. High risk, high reward. |
| Cape | Ava’s Assembler/Accumulator | Saves ammo (not critical for Craw’s, but cheap and handy). |
| Body | Black Dragonhide Body | Strong Magic defense against PKers, won’t break the bank. |
| Legs | Black Dragonhide Chaps | Same deal as the body. Keeps you safe-ish and cheap. |
| Gloves | Bracelet of Ethereum (charged) | Cuts Revenant damage by 75%, makes ‘em chill. Must-have. |
| Boots | Climbing Boots/Snakeskin Boots | Budget-friendly with decent stats. No need to flex here. |
| Ring | Ring of Dueling/Glory | Fast tele to Ferox Enclave or Edgeville for banking. |
| Shield (optional) | Book of Law/God Book | Extra defense if you wanna play it safe. |
Amulet of Avarice: Yay or Nay?
The Amulet of Avarice is a game-changer, no cap. It boosts your damage and accuracy by 20% and makes Rev drops noted, so you can carry more loot. Downside? It skulls you, so you lose everything if you die unless Protect Item is on. Worth it? Hell yeah, if you’re good at dodging PKers. If you’re nervous, grab a Salve Amulet (ei) for a safer boost against undead Revs.
Inventory Setup
Your inventory’s gotta keep you alive and efficient:
- Royal Seed Pod or Dragonstone Jewellery: Teleport out up to level 30 Wilderness.
- Saradomin Brews (4-6): Emergency heals, pair with food.
- Super Restores (2-4): Fix brew stat drain, keep Prayer up.
- Anglerfish (4-6): Big healing for clutch moments.
- Ranging Potion (1-2): Pumps your Ranged for faster kills.
- Stamina Potion (1): Keeps you sprinting from PKers.
- Revenant Ether (100-200): Extra for your Bracelet of Ethereum.
- Looting Bag: More room for that sweet loot.
- Telegrab Runes (optional): Snag drops from a distance if PKers are lurking.
Word of advice: Don’t bring anything you’d cry over losing. The Wilderness doesn’t care about your feelings.
Stats You Need to Slay
To really shine with this method, you want solid combat stats. Here’s what I’d aim for:
- Ranged: 80+ (90+ if you wanna flex).
- Prayer: 43+ for Protect from Magic, 70+ for Piety or Rigour.
- Defence: 70+ to tank PKer hits better.
- Agility: 75+ (89 for that clutch shortcut).
- Hitpoints: 80+ to stay alive longer.
Got lower stats? You can still make it work, but kills will be slower, and PKers will feel scarier. Higher stats mean more GP and less stress. Facts.
How to Farm Revenants Like a Boss
Time to get to the killing. Focus on Revenant Orks or Knights for the best mix of profit and ease. Why these? Orks are quick with solid drops, while Knights give better loot but hit harder. Dragons are juicy but deep in the caves and a PKer magnet.
Step-by-Step Plan
- Get to the Caves: Use a Revenant Cave Teleport or Burning Amulet to hit the level 40 entrance. Head south for Orks or Knights.
- Fight Smart: Pop your Bracelet of Ethereum to chill the Revs out. Lure ‘em to a corner to avoid multi-combat PKer squads.
- Crank the DPS: Sip a Ranging Potion, turn on Rigour or Eagle Eye, and blast away with Craw’s Bow on Rapid. That 50% bonus melts their HP.
- Bank Regularly: Bank every 20 minutes or after a fat drop like an ancient artifact. Use Royal Seed Pod or Ring of Dueling to bounce.
- Spot PKers Early: Keep your minimap wide and hover the logout button. See a PKer? Freeze ‘em with Entangle or bolt to a level 30+ escape.
Handling Revenant Healing
Revs heal a bit when their HP dips below 50%, but it’s no biggie. Keep smacking ‘em with Craw’s Bow, and they’ll drop quick. The high DPS makes their healing a joke.
How Much GP Can You Make?
Here’s the breakdown (based on ~150 kills/hour, skulled, with Craw’s Bow):
- Revenant Orks: ~3-4M GP/hour.
- Revenant Knights: ~4-4.5M GP/hour.
- Revenant Dragons: ~4-5M+ GP/hour (but super risky).
Drops you’re chasing:
- Wilderness Weapons: Craw’s Bow (u), Viggora’s Chainmace, Thammaron’s Sceptre (~20-30M each).
- Ancient Artifacts: Sell to the Emblem Trader or GE for big stacks.
- Blighted Items: Food, runes, spell sacks to stretch your trips.
- Resources: Runes, ores, seeds for steady GP.
Check GE Tracker for current prices before you gear up or buy ether. Prices can swing hard.
Outsmarting PKers: Stay Alive, Keep Your Loot
PKers are the real threat in the caves. Here’s how to keep ‘em off your back:
- Freeze and Dip: Hit a PKer with Entangle or Ice Barrage, duck around a corner, and log out after 10 seconds.
- Tank It Out: Combo Saradomin Brews and Anglerfish to survive, then tele with a Royal Seed Pod if you’re under level 30 Wilderness.
- Use Shortcuts: That 89 Agility shortcut is a PKer’s nightmare. Most won’t have it.
- Time Your Trips: Farm during quiet hours (early mornings or weekdays) to avoid PKer gangs.
- Protect Item Prayer: Keep it on to save your Craw’s Bow or Amulet of Avarice. Don’t get smited watch your Prayer!
Ever lost a big item to a smite? Sucks, right? Keep Prayer above 20 and don’t overeat if you’re low on restores.
Managing Risk: Don’t Lose Your Bow
Craw’s Bow needs 1000 Revenant Ether (176K GP) to activate, plus 2000 ether/hour (~352K GP) on Rapid. If you die, you lose the 1000 activation ether even with Protect Item, and extra ammo ether drops too. My tip? Bring just enough ether for your trip (2000-3000 total) to cut losses. You can Uncharge the bow to grab back ammo ether when banking.
The Amulet of Avarice is a PKer magnet since it skulls you. Not feeling brave? Use a Salve Amulet (ei) for less stress and still decent kills.
Webweaver Bow: Should You Upgrade?
Got a Craw’s Bow and some spare cash? You can upgrade to a Webweaver Bow with Fangs of Venenatis (needs 85 Fletching or 500K coins at Derse Venator). It’s got slightly better stats and a special attack. Worth it for Revs? Nah, not really. Craw’s Bow is already overpowered, and the upgrade cost (millions for fangs) isn’t worth the tiny DPS bump. Save it for Wilderness bosses.
